Dune du Pilat
Highlight • Beach
This dune is a breathtaking spectacle, offering breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Landes forest on the other. Its fine, golden sand is constantly reshaped by wind and tides, creating an ever-changing landscape.
The Pilat Dune not only attracts more than a million visitors per year, but it is also an important ecological site, with diverse species of plants and animals. Climbing the dune can be a challenge due to its slope and the shifting texture of the sand, but the reward at the top is a stunning panorama, especially magnificent at sunset.
